Australian spin legend Shane Warne said Wednesday he was "happily retired' from Test cricket and had no intention of staging a dramatic comeback.
Warne was responding to speculation that he would be tempted back into bamboozling the world's top batsmen by Stuart McGill's surprise retirement this week.

The manager of Australian bowling great Shane Warne Tuesday ruled out a dramatic return to action for the player in next year's Ashes clash against England.
Spinner Stuart MacGill's sudden announcement this week that he would play no more Tests has prompted widespread speculation in Australia that Warne could again don the baggy green cap to terrorise the old enemy.

One of Stuart MacGill's biggest regrets about his decision to retire from international cricket at the end of the second Test against West Indies is that he believes his Australia teammates were just beginning to appreciate him more.
The 37-year-old leg-spin bowler announced his decision to quit on Sunday, but his unusual interests which included a love for fine wines and a voracious love for reading, as well as openly speaking his mind bristled the usually staid environment of the team dressing room.

The sudden retirement of Australian leg-spinner Stuart MacGill over the weekend could see bowling great Shane Warne come out of international retirement, cricket commentators said Monday.
MacGill called quits on his 44-Test career Sunday midway through the second Test against the West Indies in Antigua after admitting that at 37 he was no longer up to the rigours of international cricket.

The surprising announcement came from an Australia team spokesman on Sunday, after heavy overnight and early morning rain delayed the start of play at the Vivian Richards Cricket Ground.
